Just completed week 6. I’ve never run before and I’m over 60 so really pleased. I never thought I would say this but I actually enjoy running and wish I’d done it years ago.

Welcome to the forum and well done on your progress.

This guide to the plan is essential reading healthunlocked.com/couchto5...

and includes advice on minimising impact, stretching after every run, hydration and strengthening exercises, all of which will help.

Enjoy your journey.

Well done , well on your way 👌🏃🏻‍♀️

I’ve wasted 40 odd years saying I can’t run / don’t want to run . This programme has changed all that . It’s never too late though 🤷🏼‍♀️😂
